MSF has used inflatable tents in areas of emergency. These can be erected rapidly, are fairly mobile, and are very functional. The OT in Gogrial is an inflatable tent. The inpatient units include a Surgical Ward, a Medical Ward, a Pediatric Ward, and a Maternity Ward. These are in fixed buildings that were built in 2010, and will eventually be handed off to the local Ministry of Health once the Human Resources and infrastructure to man and maintain them are present in the local community. It is then that MSF will back away from this project. This should occur sometime around 2015, but no one is holding their breath.
